This is one of the reasons Medical insurance in this country is out of control and starting to resemble the Socialist countries with Govt run medical care.

In an interview the man expressed happiness at being reunited with his mother and was still living. After we spent 2million dollars on his treatment, some lawyer wants to cost our health system more. If this man was a legal immigrant, he would be getting social security disability payments and would be the most popular guy in Guat.

There are people who, yes illegaly come into this country, but not to incur any kind of costs but to better themselves and their families. You're gonna tell me an illegal person who walks into an ER and "demands" medical attention should be left to die!? That makes no sense!! Really pisses me off when people think like this. *Citizen, Susan and Turk*

Instead of the American tax payers paying for his care, when he was not an American. I believe illegal aliens are partly responsible for our soaring medical costs. They did the right thing and this should not even be on trial. I think the hospital did the right thing by sending an illegal alien back to his country for care.
